About
A beautifully presented two-bedroom Victorian cottage, tastefully modernised while retaining much of its original character.
The home features a mature west-facing garden and is ideally positioned within easy walking distance of village amenities.
The front door opens into a charming sitting room, with a window to the front and an original open fireplace with ornate surround and raised hearth.
Built-in storage cupboards and shelving sit neatly on either side, and attractive Parquet flooring extends across the ground floor, adding warmth and character.
The dual-aspect kitchen/dining room, styled with timeless Shaker cabinetry, provides a wide range of storage cupboards and drawers, ample worktop space, a 1.5 bowl sink with mixer tap, oven and hob with extractor above, and room for further appliances.
The dining area offers plenty of space for a table and chairs, with windows to the rear and side allowing excellent natural light. A door provides direct access to the rear garden.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing includes an airing cupboard housing the boiler.
There are two bedrooms—a generous double with a front-facing window and a single currently arranged as a study, enjoying a side aspect.
The family bathroom is fitted with a modern white suite including a WC, wash hand basin, and a panelled bath with shower over, finished with stylish Metro tiles and wooden flooring.
Outside, gated access leads to a shingled driveway providing off-road parking, currently used as side garden and seating area.
Garage with power and plumbing is currently used as a utility and storage space.
The enclosed rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with established planting, trees, and attractive brick and fence boundaries offering privacy.
The sought-after village of Cottenham lies approximately 7 miles north of Cambridge and offers an excellent range of amenities.
These include local shops, a Co-operative store, pharmacy, two GP surgeries, a dental practice, library, primary school, and Cottenham Village College for secondary education.
The village also has several public houses, restaurants, a church, community centre, and point-to-point racecourse. The A14 provides easy access to Cambridge, the M11, and A1 for commuters.
Agent’s Note: There is a pedestrian right of way across the rear of No.29 serving No.27.
